Monatuk and New York Beaches Surf Report for 02-28-2025
Published 1 year, 1 month ago
Description
Beach Lovers, Brace Yourselves!
This is your Sunday surf safety update from the National Weather Service, and things are looking dicey along the New York coastline. We've got a high rip current risk blazing across all our local beaches until 6 PM today, so listen up and listen good!
Expect cloudy skies with a chance of rain and east winds howling between 15 to 20 miles per hour. Surf heights are hovering around 3 to 4 feet, with water temperatures in the chilly upper 60s. Not exactly tropical paradise conditions, beach bums!
From Coney Island to Rockaway, Atlantic Beach to Fire Island, the message is crystal clear: stay out of the water! These aren't just gentle suggestions - these are life-saving warnings. Rip currents are lurking and they're hungry for unsuspecting swimmers.
Temperatures will barely nudge the upper 60s, so even if you're tempted to take a dip, Mother Nature is giving you a big fat NO. UV index is low, skies are gray, and the wind is making its presence known.
Quick tide check: Low tides are rolling in around midday - Jones Inlet at 11:55 AM, Fire Island Inlet at 11:53 AM. Sunrise happened early at 6:49 AM, with sunset closing out the day at 6:44 PM.
Pro tip: If you somehow find yourself caught in a rip current, don't panic. Float, stay calm, and signal for help. Better yet, don't enter the water at all today.
Stay safe, stay smart, and respect the ocean!
